Glenn Pierce, chairman of the theater and film said
He said the theater, which was carved into the side of a large hill, was horseshoe-shaped with seats cut into the rock walls. It was restored in 1986 and is acoustically excellent, he said.
In addition, four of the actors from the KU production are going, although they will not portray the same characters as in the version presented at KU last month, said Andrew Tsubishi, director of the pla-

In addition to the hands-on experience, students participating will receive six hours of credit. Three will be taught about the arts and three as theater and film credit.
"Their afternoons will be free to go to the beach or whatever," Pierce said. "They'll be doing lots of work."
Tsubaki said that he was excited about the trip and that he expected about 3,000 people to attend each of

Pierce said he worked for almost two years to coordinate the trip. It will be taken in conjunction with the KU Study Abroad Program. Each of the travelers will pay $2,712.

Local measles reports decline
Officials say statewide outbreak grows
By Steve Bailey
Kansas staff writer
Although no possible cases of measles have been reported in Douglas County since April 25, cases continue to be reported daily throughout the state, health officials said yesterday.
Douglas County has had nine suspected cases of measles reported since April 18, but one case was found not to be measles, reducing the total to eight, said Barbara Snitker, director of nurses at the Douglas County Health Department.
Schnitzer said that she was encouraged that the first report was negative but that it was too early to tell whether Douglas County was in the clear.
At the present time, there are no other cases confirmed," Schnitzer said. "We are expecting to receive results of some of the other cases next week. All we can do is wait for the results."
Charles Yockey, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said there had been no suspected cases treated at Watkins since the week of April 9.
"It is very gratifying that we only had three suspected cases here all spring," she said, going to miss the heaviest part of the outbreak."
Vockey said he suspected that measles would return to the University of Kansas next spring.
"I think we will continue to see measels every early spring for the next several years because of its reappearance during the last few years," he said. "Until every student on this campus is immunized, we will continue to see measels. But I think for the rest of this year, as far as the University is concerned, we're safe."
However, it is obvious from the numbers reported to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment that the state is not safe
from this spring's outbreak, said Greg Crawford, director of public information for the department.
"It doesn't seem to be getting any better," he said. "We now have 260 cases reported from 42 states, of which have been confirmed."
Crawford said the state lab was working hard to send back confirmation results as quickly as it could.
"The lab is extremely busy analyzing all of these cases," he said. "They really haven't had much rest in the last couple of months."
Crawford said the state still had an adequate amount of measles, mumps and rubella vaccine, although it had sent more than 20,000 doses of vaccine to health departments throughout the state.
"The outbreak will probably continue at this rate until the schools get out," Crawford said. "As school children leave the classroom, a smaller mode of transmission will be greatly diminished."
